I am trying to automate my HA backups and I imagine there is more than one way to do this. I am going to try and run a script that will be then executed by the Scheduler integration which is available via HACS. My goal is to get as close to as complete backup as possible of everything in HA. If anyone can tell me how to fix I would appreciate it.
To start thank you, but I am not a google fan and don’t use Chrome or any of their products. I simply don’t trust them. That said I was thinking maybe I could somehow back up to my Dropbox account. I think I looked into HACS Auto Backup, but I thought I had read reviews of it not being a complete product. I’d have to go back and check again. For now if I can fix the script that would be great
+1 for the Samba Backup add-on. Mine saves to a local NAS, which is then backed up outside of HA into private/encrypted Amazon S3 buckets using the NAS’ built-in cloud backup tool. Not quite 3-2-1 backup strategy since HAOS also runs as a VM on the NAS, but close enough.
For those who trust the evil Microsoft monopoly over Google, you can use this same Samba Backup add-on to copy your HA backups to a Windows PC file share in place of the NAS…
